Delicious and Nutritious Green Tea Cookies

green tea cookies

This great green tea cookies recipe is one that uses matcha green tea powder. You can buy matcha at a Japanese grocery store or at any speciality tea shop.

If you are a devotee of green tea, one of the best sources for loose leaf, tea bags and powdered green tea, are on-line stores.

Green tea powder is typically quite bitter and so if you are cooking for children, it is better to use less matcha and that way you will get the benefits of adding green tea to your cookies, but the flavor will be more subtle.

My children like these cookies with ice cream!
